Spike Lee: Trump ‘like Hitler’ toward Muslims
The Hill ^ | December 01, 2015 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 12/01/2015 3:47:48 PM PST by Clintonfatigued

Filmmaker Spike Lee sees parallels between GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump and Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

“He wants to close down the mosques now,” Lee said Monday in an interview with The Daily Beast, referring to Trump.

“That’s like the Nazis,” Lee continued. "That’s Hitler, [Italian fascist leader Benito] Mussolini, the Axis powers.

“You can’t do that,” he added.

Trump is pushing for closer scrutiny of America’s Islamic communities following last month’s terrorist attacks in Paris. About 130 people died and more than 300 others were wounded during coordinated violence across the French capital on Nov. 13.

Trump has responded by calling for stricter surveillance of the nation’s mosques following the attacks. He has also proposed a national registry of Syrian refugees.

Lee also rejected Trump’s disputed claims that some Muslim Americans in New Jersey celebrated the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

“That was a bold-faced lie,” he said in The Daily Beast interview. "Muslims were getting their asses kicked in this country when that happened.

“Here’s the thing: the United States has perfected the science of ‘the boogeyman,’” Lee said. "Native Americans, African Americans, Hispanics, Nazis, Soviets, Chinese and now it is Muslims. They’re the new boogeymen.”

Lee then challenged the assertion that radical Islam is the sole inspiration for terrorism.

“The Planned Parenthood shooter, that guy is a terrorist, too,” he said, referencing last week’s attack at one of the organization’s facilities in Colorado Springs, Colo.

“That’s not the first time some Planned Parenthood building has been shot up,” Lee continued. "That’s terrorism.

Hitler loved the Muslims.

Admired them also.

Muslims admired Hitler and his mass killing of innocent Jews.

Who was the president during WWII, and what party controlled congress and the Supreme Court?

Below is a reality that has been hidden by the left wing media re German Americans in WWII.

One of the best kept secrets of WWII was the internment of German American men, women and children, away from the rest of America.

Canada and some Latin America countries did the same and interned some Italians.

Why did these evil countries do this. They were at war with the Axis, Germany, Italy and Japan, and they did not want to have acts of terrorism committed against their citizens by possible terrorists.

Did the media label FDR as a Nazi for the internment of Germans, Japanese and some Italians during WWII?

"Hitler had been much impressed by a scrap of history he had learned from a delegation of distinguished Arabs."[2] The delegation had speculated that the world would have become "Mohammedan" if the Berbers and Arabs had won the Battle of Tours in the 8th Century AD, and that the Germans would have become heirs to "a religion that believed in spreading the faith by the sword and in subjugating all nations to that faith. Such a creed was perfectly suited to the German temperament." Albert Speer INside the Third Reich

Some bearded leftist college professor took Spike under his wing, and convinced him that he had talent. I would bet the ranch on this.
